Plain-English summary

Mountain Warehouse is recalling approximately 1,000 plastic 350ml children's water bottles due to a choking hazard. The bottles feature a screw-on solid color top with a pop-up straw and handle. The specific models involved have lids with prints of tractors, hedgehogs, sharks, fish, and horses. A barcode is printed on the price sticker located at the bottom of the bottle.

The hazard exists because the water bottle's spout can detach, exposing a small ring that poses a choking risk to children. The company has not reported any injuries associated with this defect.

These water bottles were sold in Mountain Warehouse stores nationwide and online at www.mountainwarehouse.com/us from July 2017 through September 2018 for about $10. Consumers should immediately stop using the bottles, take them away from young children, and contact Mountain Warehouse for a full refund.
